Rashida Jones is pretty but not in a conventional movie star way — she seems to have too much on her mind. She has some of the elegance of her mother, ’60s TV star Peggy Lipton, but without the hippie spaciness, and her sharp chin and mischievous eyes recall her father, producer-composer Quincy Jones. There’s a quickness to Jones that lets her keep up with the boys in comedies like “I Love You, Man” and dramas like “The Social Network,” and there’s a directness, too, that bespeaks ambition. The surprise of “Celeste and Jesse Forever” isn’t that she co-wrote a screenplay but that it took her so long.
